SF 6 -insulated switchgear is widely used in electrical transmission and distribution. The level of humidity in the sulfur hexafluoride, however, must be kept below its water saturation point. If the gas gets too wet, it loses some of its insulating properties; …

Sulfur hexafluoride is the gas most commonly used as insulator in power transmission and distribution switchgear. Water, however, can negatively affect the dielectric capabilities of SF 6 gas. To prevent operational and safety issues, it is important to measure and …
